Power and Remote Control

The PRO 44T offers several key upgrades from the PREMIER model. With a 17.5 HP Briggs and Stratton EX series engine, the PRO 44T has substantially more power—which enables faster mowing speeds that let you mow up to 1.5 acres per hour. Plus, a cabled remote control allows you to start or stop the engine and engage the cutting blade from your the seat of your ATV or UTV.

Features May Include:

Powerful Engine

• The legendary power, performance and durability of Briggs & Stratton® engines make them a great choice for our Field and Brush Mowers. They are easy to start, comfortable to use, and feature a debris management system that protects the engine from whatever you kick up while you're cutting.

Floating Deck

• The deck is suspended from the frame, allowing it to ride up and over high points, minimizing scalping and protecting the drivetrain from damage.

Assembled in the USA

• Assembled in the USA using foreign and domestic parts. Ships direct from our Wisconsin factory.

No-Tools Height Adjustment

• Choose your mowing height—from 4" to 7.5"—with two easy-turning hand cranks.

Pivoting Blades

• Unique swinging blades pivot when hitting an immovable object, to protect the mower's blade, spindle and engine.

Remote Control

• A remote control allows you to engage and disengage the mower blade—right from the driver's seat of your towing vehicle.

Chain Debris Guard

• Similar to the debris shields used on commercial roadside mowers, this guard stops material from flying forward

Mows Outside Wheelbase

• The mowing blade extends outside of the wheels—so you can mow right up next to fences, walls, hedgerows and other obstacles without interference.

Big "Brush Bar"

• The 2.75" thick steel frame acts as a brush bar...pushing over saplings, brambles, and other vegetation before feeding it under the deck

44" Mulching Deck

• The 44" mowing deck is enclosed on 3 sides, so cut material is chopped and re-chopped, leaving windrows behind.

Outrigger Tow Bar

• The 2-piece tow bar allows for offsetting the mowing deck to the left or right...or you can mow right behind your tow vehicle.

Mow up to 1.5 acres per hour!

• Mowing times will vary with conditions (density of growth and features of terrain), but hooked up to your ATV the DR 16.5 Tow-Behind can clear as much 1.5 acres per hour — while you ride in comfort!
